Farewell, Master

Today I read the latest sad news. Denis Ritchie, co-writer and co-ideator of UNIX and C programming language, died at 70.
Thank you for your immense contribute to computer science.

int main(int argc, char** argv){
   printf("Farewell mr. Ritchie.\n");
   printf("You made our tools.\n");
   printf("You made the True Operating System.\n");
   printf("You made us programmers.\n");
   printf("You made us hackers.\n");
   return 0;
}

Thank you
